5 Excellent - Masterpiece. A classic.
4.5-4 Great - Almost perfect records but there's probably a lacking.
3.5 Good - Most of the record is good, but there may be some filler.
3 Average - Some good songs, some bad ones at about a half/half ratio.
2.5-2 Fair - Worth a listen, but best obtained by collectors.
1.5-1 Bad - Major problems with music, lyrics, production, etc.
0 Terrible - Waste of your life and time.

Note: Reviews are graded from 0-5, anything higher or not showing is from our old style. Scores, however, do not reveal the important features. The written review that accompanies the ratings is the best source of information regarding the music on our site. Reviewing is opinionated, not a qualitative science, so scores are personal to the reviewer and could reflect anything from being technically brilliant to gloriously cheesy fun.

Demos and independent releases get some slack since the bands are often spent broke supporting themselves and trying to improve. Major releases usually have big financial backing, so they may be judged by a heavier hand. All scores can be eventually adjusted up or down by comparison of subsequent releases by the same band. We attempt to keep biases out of reviews and be advocates of the consumer without the undo influence of any band, label, management, promoter, etc.

The best way to determine how much you may like certain music is to listen to it yourself.

7/20/2017 - Review by: Greg Watson
Album that really doesn't deliver much of anything new
Dephosphorus, who call their brand of grindcore "astrogrind", have released a new album entitled 'Impossible Orbits'. What this new album has is some catchy adoration of the original wave of grindcore with really weird, off-rhythm vocals. What the album doesn't have is any new direction or sound. This album sounds like the band's prior efforts and even though the tracks rarely exceed 3 minutes in length, grinds on your nerves after a while. In small doses it is a fun listen but not one you'll want to play from start to finish.
